Movie Madness University at PSU Presents "The WW2 Combat Film"

Join us for an in-depth examination of the genre - from stirring and often-shocking propaganda programmers of the 1940s (meant to boost enlistment), and the gritty, emotional post-war realism provided by directors who’d served (John Ford, William Wellman, and Sam Fuller); to the bold experimental abstractions of Cornel Wilde and Terrence Malick, and the sweeping comic book adventures of the 60’s à la “Where Eagles Dare” and “The Guns of Navarone”.

This two hour class will be taught by director-writer Jack Perez, a professor of film at USC, PCC, CCC, The NY Film Academy, and The Academy of Art in SF. He is also the creator of the popular YouTube Premium Channel, CINEFIX. Jack currently lives in Portland with his wife and 4 cats.

Class will be held in room LH115 in Lincoln Hall, at 1620 SW Park Ave, Portland, OR 97201 on the Portland State University Campus.
